With Google Drive, you can:

  • Create and collaborate

Google Docs is built right into Google Drive, so you can work with others in real time on documents, spreadsheets and presentations. Once you choose to share content with others, you can add and reply to comments on anything (PDF, image, video file, etc.) and receive notifications when other people comment on shared items.

  • Store everything safely and access it anywhere

All your stuff is just... there. You can access your stuff from anywhere—on the web, in your home, at the office.

  • Search everything

Search by keyword and filter by file type, owner and more. Drive can even recognize text in scanned documents using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. Let’s say you upload a scanned image of an old newspaper clipping. You can search for a word from the text of the actual article.

 

You can get started with 5GB of storage for free. Drive is built to work seamlessly with your overall Google experience.

Facebook Introducing New Apps for Timeline

You can now enhance your timeline with apps that help you tell your story, whether you love to cook, eat, travel, run, or review movies.

 

Apps bring your timeline to life

Once you've added an app, you can begin updating your timeline with your activities as they happen. For example, if you love design, shopping or fashion, you can add the Pinterest or Pose apps to make your favorite items part of your timeline.

Soon, there will be apps for all types of interests, as more apps will launch over time. Whether you love snowboarding, gardening, hiking, or knitting, or something else, there will be an app for you.

 

How to add apps to your timeline

Timeline apps are for the activities you want to share with friends. You choose when to add an app, and you decide who can see it. After you've added an app, you can always remove posts directly from timeline, and you can also edit your settings from your personal Activity Log.
